Three very strong women — my mother, my grandmother, and Melinda — deserve big credit (赞扬) for helping me become the man I am today. But Blanche Caffiere, a very kind librarian and teacher I've never written about publicly before, also had a huge influence on me.
When I first met Mrs Caffiere, she was the elegant and engaging school librarian at Seattle's View Ridge Elementary, and I was a shy fourth grader. I was desperately trying to get unnoticed, because I had some big ________, like terrible handwriting and a killingly messy desk. And I was trying to hide the fact that I liked to read something that was cool for girls but not for boys.
Mrs Caffiere took me under her wing and helped make it okay for me to be a messy, nerdy boy who was reading lots of books.
deficits
She pulled me out of my shell by sharing her love of books. She started by asking questions like, “What do you like to read?” and “What are you interested in?” Then she found me a lot of books — ones that were more complex and challenging than the Tom Swift Jr. science fiction books I was reading at the time. For example, she gave me great biographies she had read. Once I'd read them, she would make the time to discuss them with me. She sincerely listened to what I had to say. Through those conversations about books in the library and in the classroom we became good friends.
Looking back on it now, there's no question that my time with Mrs Caffiere helped spark my interest in libraries (Melinda's and my first large-scale effort in philanthropy) and my focus on helping every child in America get the benefit of great teachers. It's remarkable how much power one good person can have in shaping the life of a child.

Ⅱ.阅读七选五
Successful students are highly motivated (激励) by an inner drive to study well. They have a specific career goal in mind. 8 So they form their own good study habits, plan ahead and stick to their study timetable on their own initiative (主动权).

•You should write down your educational goals, which makes them become clear.
•Imagine your success. Experience the feeling of reaching your particular goal.
•Give yourself rewards. 9
•Seek advice and study opportunities from the good students in your class.
Successful students tend to study hard. They pay much attention to class as well as taking notes. 10 Outside class they find a quiet study place to study, because they know that academic (学术的) life comes before their social life.
11 After setting goals it is important to write them down for many reasons.
•Goals that aren't written are only wishes.
•It helps you make a commitment (承诺) to yourself.
•It gives you a way to see your progress.
•No one wants to regret not doing something they could have done.
Successful students manage their time well by setting up weekly timetable. They make the best use of their study time and find a quiet place and study there every day. 12

E.They know that they are responsible for their success or failure.
F.Each time you complete a lesson, do something special for yourself.
G.When you set your goals, make sure that your goals are specific and realistic.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章从提高学习动机、平时努力学习、设定目标和管理时间四个方面给出了建议,帮助读者成为成功的学生。
8.选E 上文提到他们有明确的职业目标;下文写出了自己为自己负责的具体做法。因为他们知道要对自己的成败负责,所以才会在学习习惯、计划和时间表方面有自己的做法。故E项承上启下,符合语境。
9.选F 上文提到给自己奖励,F项“每完成一节课,为自己做一些特别的事情”正是完成目标之后给自己奖励的具体表现,符合 语境。
10.选B 上文讲的是他们在学校课上的表现,下文讲的是他们在课外的表现,故B项“他们到教室很早,坐在前排”也是他们在课堂上的具体行为,承上启下,符合语境。
11.选A 由下文的“After setting goals”可知,空处应该是关于设定目标的内容。故A项“成功的学生会设定目标”符合语境,且其结构与上下文的“Successful students ...”一致。
12.选D 前文讲他们如何利用时间,故D项“他们使学习时间富有成效,但不一定很长”是对本段的总结,符合语境。
